The September earth-
quake in Christchurch
sent shock waves around
the country.
And Riverina Primary
School in Pakuranga
wanted to do something
to help.
They organised a
fundraising day for Cen-
tral New Brighton Pri-
mary School and raised
more than $700.
Christchurch principal
Brian Thompson was so
touched by the offer of
support he decided to
pay for himself and their
head boy to fly up and
take part in the activi-
ties.
To get such an extra-
ordinary gesture of gen-
erosity I felt that I
needed to be there to say
thank you, Mr Thomp-
son says.
Riverina school princi-
pal Doreen Martin says
they wanted to help a
school similar to theirs
and one that hadn t been
in the spotlight.
Central New Brighton
School fitted the bill and
the two schools formed a
special relationship.
Mr Thompson and
student Xavier Fidow-
Bradbrook, 13, enjoyed
their three-day visit to
Auckland, where they
spent time at Riverina as
well as complimentary
visits to the Sky Tower
and Auckland Zoo.
Central New Brighton
student counsellors will
decide what to spend the
money on in consultation
with the rest of the
school.
Mr Thompson says
they got off pretty lightly
in terms of structural
damage but the
emotional damage was
most concerning.
We have employed a
child psychologist to help
us deal with some of the
behaviours many of our
children are exhibiting
and I believe they are a
direct result of the
quake, Mr Thompson
says.
Many aren t getting a
good night s sleep
because of all the after
shocks which causes
them to be scratchy and
intolerant.
He describes the mood
around school as very
fragile .
I admire
our
dedicated teachers who
come to school each day
when their homes are
sinking or split in two.
It s been incredible,
he says.
